Abstract
In response to cytotoxic serum nephritis, bilaterally adrenalectomized rats develop hypertension as frequently as do animals with intact adrenals. In order for hypertension to appear among such adrenalectomized rats, it is necessary that a satisfactory state of nutrition be maintained over a period of weeks. In our laboratory, the difficulties encountered in fulfilling this provision have been considerable in spite of the employment of a high NaCl regimen. This experience has led us to wonder whether the conflicting results in the literature relating to the question of hypertension in adrenalectomized animals may not be due, in part, to similar difficulties.
